Dear PS Experts & Gurus,
My client, scenario is somewhat like this ...
They are into I&C of telecom equipments. They have standard BOM and activities for each installation. They get an order (contract) of say 100 installations from a big client in 1 PO over the duration of 1 year. The exact sites and time for 100 nos is not mentioned in the PO.
I am using PS module for the same. I intend to create one project for each contract (standard project structure to process one equipment I&C as a template).
I want to create standard project structure (WBSE, Network, Activities, Materials and milestones...all under one WBS Element).
As and when PO comes and contract made in SD module, I will create operative PD and header WBS element for that contract in PS.
Now whenever during one year they get an intimation / request from client to install 1 equipment amongst the 100 at one site, I will copy standar structure (WBS and Network) into operative project and process the same for one equipment delivery. I will carry on this till completion of 100 equipment I&C.
In short,
My project will be purely dynamic in nature. For 100 I&Cs I will make 100 WBS elements under header WBS element.
I will not make 100 WBS at first instance.
I will keep on adding the same as and when intimation comes from customer i.e each WBS element will be as like a small project. This will be controlled separately and no relation with any other WBS element.
For each equipment, separate WBS element will be made and separate SO will be made with reference to contract. Each WBS will carry child WBSE, activities, milestones and material BOM. Milestones will get copied into SO made wrt contract for advance and final payment.
Now looking at the scenario I want your valuable inputs ...
First of all am I doing the right thing???
Is there any better way to process the above mentioned scenario through PS module.
Are you forseeing any potential problem in doing so???
Your valuable inputs will be surely helpful to me for accurately mapping this business scenario in SAP PS system.
Awaiting for lot of responses and suggestions.
Thanks and Regards
